Hi everyone,
I want to learn if I could receive a scholarship with a low GPA (LLB). Unfortunately, I have a LLB degree with a 2.60 GPA. Later, I entered into a masters degree programme in international relations and graduated with a 4.00 GPA (I've always wanted to study international relations and entered the programme so that I could limit the problems that a low GPA would create). Now, I'm wishing to apply for an LLM on international law.
So, what's the odds of being accepted to a LLM programme in the US and receive a scholarship - if I can? I have a one year working experience as a lawyer, if that also helps.
I'm not too hopeful, but I really want to have an academic career.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post.
Best,
S.
